Hi,

Again I have found contradicting and confusing information regarding paperwork.

Can anybody tell me if I should send the medical exams via DHL or bring them to our interview?

As per this document it states that my fiance will be given a sealed envelop and bring it to the interview.

However, this other document lists the medical exams in the paperwork needed to be sent via DHL

If anybody can shed some light on the subject it will be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks!
